Business Acquisitions and Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale | Business Acquisitions and Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale Roper completed three business acquisitions in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, with an aggregate purchase price of$2,352.5, net of cash acquired. The results of operations of the acquired businesses are included in Roper’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of each acquisition. Supplemental pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisitions did not have a material impact on Roper’s Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations individually or in aggregate. Acquisition of Foundry - On April 18, 2019, Roper acquired 100% of the shares of Foundry, a leading provider of software technologies used to deliver visual effects and 3D content for the entertainment, digital design, and visualization industries. The results of Foundry are reported in the Network Software & Systems reportable segment. Acquisition of ComputerEase - On August 19, 2019, Roper acquired substantially all of the assets of ComputerEase Software, a leading provider of integrated accounting, project management and field-to-office solutions for commercial construction firms. ComputerEase is integrating into our Deltek business and its results are reported in the Application Software reportable segment. Acquisition of iPipeline - On August 22, 2019, Roper acquired 100% of the shares of iPipeline Holdings, Inc., a leading provider of cloud-based software solutions for the life insurance and financial services industries. The results of iPipeline are reported in the Network Software & Systems reportable segment. The Company recorded $1,424.9 in goodwill and $1,165.5 of other identifiable intangibles in connection with the acquisition; however, purchase price allocations are preliminary pending final tax-related adjustments. The majority of the goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The amortizable intangible assets include customer relationships of $1,005.3 (15.8 year weighted average useful life) and technology of $107.6 (6.8 year weighted average useful life). Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale During the second quarter of 2018, Roper and Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. (“Thermo Fisher”) entered into a definitive agreement under which Thermo Fisher would acquire 100% of the shares of Gatan, Inc. (“Gatan”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Roper, for approximately $925.0 in cash. On June 10, 2019, Roper and Thermo Fisher announced a mutual termination of this agreement due to the challenges in obtaining regulatory approval in the United Kingdom. During the third quarter of 2019, Roper and AMETEK, Inc. (“AMETEK”) entered into a definitive agreement under which AMETEK would acquire Gatan for approximately $925.0 in cash. On October 29, 2019, the Company closed on its sale of Gatan to AMETEK. The Company is currently calculating the gain and associated tax expense on the sale, which will be disclosed within the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Gatan is reported in the Measurement & Analytical Solutions reportable segment. At December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2019, the assets and liabilities of Gatan were classified as held for sale on Roper’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognized a deferred tax liability of $10.0 associated with the excess of book basis over tax basis in the shares of Gatan during 2018. The Company reversed this deferred tax liability in the third quarter of 2019 due to the structure of the transaction with AMETEK. The Company closed on its sale of Princeton Instruments, Photometrics, Lumenera, and other brands (collectively, the “Imaging” businesses) to Teledyne Technologies Inc. on February 5, 2019 for approximately $225.0 in cash. The results of the Imaging businesses are reported in the Measurement & Analytical Solutions segment through such date. The sale resulted in a pretax gain of $119.6, which is reported within “Gain on disposal of business” in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings. In addition, we recognized income tax expense of $32.2 in connection with the sale, which is included within “Income taxes” in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings. The assets and liabilities of the Imaging businesses were classified as held for sale on Roper’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2018.
